In Cars: Top Ten things to worry about while commuting

The average North American’s head may be occupied by a few worrisome details of life while its owner is driving to work.

Do you worry about anything? Do you have a Top Ten list?


For example, do you worry that as fuel costs rise the average Canadian will have to spend more than “$269 a month on costs related to working out of the home?” (Aug. 25, Go Figure, London Free Press)

Do you worry that as more cars join you on the roadways (the 2012 models are flush with comfort and convenience!) the average commute (42 min. both ways in one study; 30 minutes one way in Canada’s six largest cities in another survey) will just get longer?

Do you worry the grocery store parking lot will be awfully busy by the time you get off work tonight? Did you forget the list?

What ever the case, allow me to suggest there are tonnes of things more worrisome than commute times and monthly costs. A Top Ten list barely scratches the service.

Tune in to In Cars, Parts 1 - 3, for more details.
